Not every muscle pain is the same.
Understanding the difference between muscle soreness and injury can prevent serious damage.
Normal soreness:
• appears after exercise
• fades within 48 hours
• improves with movement
Possible injury:
• sharp pain during activity
• swelling or bruising
• pain when moving the muscle
If your pain doesn’t improve in a few days, your body may need professional care.
